Momentum relaxation due to polar optical phonons in AlGaN/GaN heterostructures (2011)
Journal Article
Zhang, J., Zhang, J., Dyson, A., & Ridley, B. K. (2011). Momentum relaxation due to polar optical phonons in AlGaN/GaN heterostructures. Physical review B: Condensed matter and materials physics, 84(15), Article ARTN 155310. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.84.155310

Using the dielectric continuum (DC) model, momentum relaxation rates are calculated for electrons confined in quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) channels of AlGaN/GaN heterostructures. Particular attention is paid to the effects of half-space and inter... Read More about Momentum relaxation due to polar optical phonons in AlGaN/GaN heterostructures.

Novel antenna-integrated photodiodes with strained absorbers designed for use as terahertz sources (2011)
Journal Article
Henning, I. D., Adams, M. J., Vaughan, M., Abraham, T., Sun, Y., Dyson, A., …Firth, R. J. (2011). Novel antenna-integrated photodiodes with strained absorbers designed for use as terahertz sources. IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Quantum Electronics, 17(1), 202-209. https://doi.org/10.1109/jstqe.2010.2049196

We present experimental results on the performance of antenna-integrated photodiodes intended for use as photomixers to provide a tunable broadband source of terahertz (THz) radiation. In a balanced strain-absorber structure, we show that the introdu... Read More about Novel antenna-integrated photodiodes with strained absorbers designed for use as terahertz sources.
